3.245

kiṃ padmasya ruciṃ na hanti nayanānandaṃ vidhatte na kiṃ
vṛddhiṃ vā jhaṣaketanasya kurute nāloka-mātreṇa kim |
vaktrendau tava saty ayaṃ yad aparaḥ śītāṃśur ujjṛmbhate
darpaḥ syād amṛtena ced iha tad apy asty eva bimbādhare ||

"Does it not destroy the lotus's beauty? Does it not produce delight for the eyes? / Or does it not cause the fish-bannered [god's] increase merely by its sight? / While your moon-face is present, that this other cool-rayed moon swells with pride— / if it be pride on account of nectar, even that truly exists here on your bimba-lip!"

3.245.p2

ity atra candra-sāmyena mukhe amṛta-kalpanād ayam abhiprāyaḥ | athavā tatraivātihṛdya-bimbādhare rājño mamatvam abhiprāyaḥ |

Here, because of the imagining of nectar in the face through resemblance to the moon, this is intention (abhiprāya). Or, in that very place, the King's sense of possessiveness toward the exceedingly charming bimba-lip is intention.
